Novel systems research and development
At the MST, innovative systems utilizing ultrasound and laser light waves are developed and applied in collaboration with a network of partners. Outstanding research achievements have been made in the fields of adaptive optics and wavefront control. Using adaptive lenses, novel microscopes for examining the thyroid gland in transgenic organisms have been developed. For machine tools, an optical in-situ 3D shape measurement system with keyhole access was developed, enabling 100% quality control. The developed ultrasound-based systems allow for flow measurements of liquid semiconductors, yielding new insights into crystallization processes (photovoltaics).
